German architect **Ole Scheeren** designed it: a glass tower that seems to be unravelled by a spiral of protruding pixel-like cubes. It opened in **2016** and was then Thailand's tallest building. **Mahanakhon SkyWalk** occupies the top floors. A high-speed lift reaches **floor 74** in under 50 seconds, with an indoor observatory and floor-to-ceiling windows. Then comes **floor 78**: the open-air **Peak** at 314 m and the **Glass Tray** floor at 310 m. ## What to see - **The Glass Tray** at 310 m — the city right beneath your feet. - **The Peak** open-air roof at 314 m — an all-round view and sunset. - **The indoor observatory on floor 74** — floor-to-ceiling windows and interactive screens. - **Views over Lumphini Park**, the Chao Phraya River and the BTS lines. - **The I-Tilt on floor 75** — a tilting glass platform (separate ticket). - **Sky Beach bar** on the roof — cocktails with a view. ## How to get to Mahanakhon SkyWalk 1. **By BTS** to **Chong Nonsi** (Silom line), **exit 3** — the tower is next to the station. 2. **By BRT** to Sathorn station. 3. **By bus** — routes 15, 16, 34, 77, 162 and 187. 4. **By taxi** to 114 Narathiwas Ratchanakarin Road; the official website has a Thai-language address card for drivers. 5. **Tickets and lifts** are in the ground-floor lobby. ## How long do you need, and when to go? Allow **1–1.5 hours**, longer with the rooftop bar. The most beautiful time is **sunset and the half-hour after**, but tickets are dearest then. To save money, go up in the daytime or late in the evening — Bangkok lit up is lovely too. In the rainy season (roughly May to October) evening downpours are common, and the open roof may close in bad weather. Check the forecast and book a clear day. ## Mahanakhon or Baiyoke Sky? | | Mahanakhon | Baiyoke Sky | | --- | --- | --- | | Height | 314 m, roof on floor 78 | ≈ 304 m, roof on floor 84 | | Highlight | Glass floor at 310 m | Revolving open-air deck | | Area | Silom | Pratunam | | Ticket | 500–1,200 baht by time slot | 450 baht with a drink | ## Is Mahanakhon SkyWalk worth it? Yes: it's Thailand's highest observation deck, and the glass floor at 310 m is one of Bangkok's most vivid experiences. The decks are modern and comfortable. The YesGo take: sunset tickets are expensive and the top gets crowded. You'll have to leave bags behind, and tripods aren't allowed. If budget matters more, Baiyoke Sky is cheaper with almost the same view. ## Before you go: checklist - [ ] Ticket booked for the right slot — sunset costs more - [ ] No backpack, big bag or tripod - [ ] Forecast checked — no rain - [ ] Arriving before 23:00, when entry closes - [ ] Nearby: Lumphini Park ## Bangkok viewpoints: compare and choose Bangkok observation decks rated by YesGo. - [Wat Arun](https://yesgo.io/thailand/bangkok/wat-arun) — YesGo score 51/100 (Yes, go) · 1 h · ≈ 200 baht - [Mahanakhon SkyWalk](https://yesgo.io/thailand/bangkok/mahanakhon-skywalk) — YesGo score 37/100 (Yes, if nearby) · 1 h 15 min · 500–1,200 baht depending on time - [Golden Mount](https://yesgo.io/thailand/bangkok/golden-mount) — YesGo score 37/100 (Yes, if nearby) · 1 h · climb ≈ 100 baht - [Baiyoke Sky](https://yesgo.io/thailand/bangkok/baiyoke-sky) — YesGo score 32/100 (Yes, if nearby) · 1 h · 450 baht incl. a drink ## Chinatown and Silom in a day Wat Traimit and its Golden Buddha in the morning, Lumphini Park in the afternoon, then the Mahanakhon SkyWalk for sunset.
